vented new and useful improvements in To hacco l ipes. oi which the following is a specification. v

The invention relates to pipes for smoking tobacco, and has for an object to provide a pine which can be readily and quickly leaned for the purpose of removing nicotin other sedin'ients or deposits from the hotthe bowl and stem of the pipe,

v invention contemplates among other features the provision of a pipe which its I t'erahlr formed in sections said a mouthpiece ith the body no ct said tions 3f1t1OV- of the pipe and mouthniece in its reu'ioml to carry the othti ctions therewith so that both se can he siinui illltT'GUSlIV removed iroin Body of the pipe and mouth piece and then. s iarated and etc .ted to reinove on: s ijlinients or depo its therefrom.

ln the lill'i'lltl disclosure oi the intention reference is to he had to the accox'nponyin drawings, constitu" rig; a part of this speciir cation, in which similar characters of reference denote corresponding parts in all the views. and in which:

Figure l is a vertical longitudinal sec tional View taken through the pipe, showing the pipe assembled; Fig. *2 is a similar View showing the lower stem sect-ion partially reahle ' moved and in position to carry the upper tion therewith; Fig. 3 is a perspectire .lQ'W, sho ing the stem sections disentor leaning; and Fig. l is a vertical ional View taiten on the line Referring more particula "to the views,

i more particu- 12 communicating with the bowl ll, a suitable tuhular nmuthpiece being provided 'and coni'iectiiw with the tuhularshanlt 1: by

e stem 1% consisting of an upperstem section 15 and a lower stein section it said stein sections being each SQlTii-CllCllittl l1 cross section, with the lower stein sect on lti longer than the upper stein section 1:) and na ung its inner end projecting into the bottom of the bowl whereas the inner end of the uppeino section 15 extends up to the bowl of the pipe. "the outer ends of the stem sections" lie e'rtteriorly of the mouthpiece and terminote in heads ii" and 18 respectively which ahut against the mouth end of the mouthpiece as shown. The inner extremity of the lowe stein section has a projection 19 which bears against a wall of tie bowl and limits the movement of the lower stem section, and the mouthpiece 13 is preferably provided with a not h 20 adjacent the head 18 of the stem section 16. how assuming that the stem becomes clogged with nicotin or some other deposit or foreign matter, when it is desired to clean the same, the finger nail is inserted in the notch 20. and try pull exerted a ainst the head 18 of the lower stem section 1c, thus causing the lower stein section to he moved in the shank 12 and he removed by way of the mouthpiece 13. its the lower stem section is moved in the shank, it will be seen that the projection 19 will bear against the front end of the upper scent section. and will thus cause the upper stem section. to be removed with the lower stern sectioz'n as shown in Fig. 2. The stem sections when removed from the mouthpiece and shank, are separated and can then be readily cleaned out to remove any foreign mattertherefrom. 7

When the stem sections are in position in the shank 12 as shown in Fig. 1 and connect the shank l2 and n'iouthpiece 13 asshown in the same figure, it will be seen that the projection 19 of the lower stem section 16, heat against a wall of the bowl, will act as a guide to guide the nicotin or any foreign matter into the projecting end of the lower stem section so that when he stem sections are suosequently removed such deposits or foreign matter can be easily cleaned out of the lower, section as well as the upper section which will be removed simultaneously with the lower stem section in the manner set forth.

Having thus described our invention We claim:

A tobacco pipe having a cleaning device consisting of upper and lower stein sections providing a tubular passage, said lower stein section projecting beyond the upper stem section and having" its inner end extending into the howl a projection on the inner end of the lower stern section and adapted to engage the inner end ot the upper stern sec tion to worlc'the removal of the upper stern section from the'shanl of the howl of the pipe and mouthpiece of the pipe when the lower stem section is removed from the shank and mouthpiece, the projection on the inner end of the lower section being normally spaced a distance from the inner end of the upper section for permitting nicotin and the-like being collected in the extended portion of the lower stem section, and said projection whenengaging with the upper 10 stem section serving to close the inner end H.
